Protect Me Knight


Protect Me Knight is a retro style action tower defense video game developed by Ancient for the Xbox 360’s Xbox Live Indie Games service. Released on May 24, 2010, the game features music composed by Ancient co-founder Yuzo Koshiro.
Players assume the roles of four character classes tasked with the duty of protecting a princess from legions of oncoming monster hordes. Protect Me Knight features 8-bit visuals and audio and contains different digital box art styles for the Japanese and English versions of the game, as a humorous spoof to the regional box art differences of video games from the 8-bit and 16-bit eras.

A sequel to Protect Me Knight, titled Protect Me Knight 2, was released in Japan for the Nintendo 3DS eShop in September 2014, and later as Gotta Protectors in July 2016. A third entry is scheduled for release on the Nintendo Switch Q2 2020.
